MY FACT ABOUT BIAFRA.

This is a part some people will not like to hear, but we will say it here for historical purposes. When the great Biafran leader, Col. Dim Emeka Odimegwu Ojukwu was granted a state pardon by President Shehu Shagari in 1982, the Ikemba soon contested for Senate under the then National Party of Nigeria (NPN), but did his people vote for him? Lest we also forget, he contested for the presidency, how many votes did he got even in Anambra?
Let us bring in Chief Alex Ekweme. We recall, despite being founding member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP),he contested for the party nomination for president in 2002. We all remember how the South-East governors then did all they could to outdo themselves to be seen to be more loyal to President Olusegun Obasanjo than even his own ministers. There was nothing wrong in all these for these people as long as it all guarantees fat bank accounts and unmerited rewards. No one talks about Biafra when contract figures are inflated; Biafra makes no sense as long as “our son” is given a juicy political appointment; Biafra could wait a little had Azikiwe won the presidency. Or that Biafra must go if “our daughter” is alleged to have stolen and sacked from office; “Biafra or death” when “our son” leaves a position and the same “son” must replace him; it has to be Biafra because “our son” comprises the majority of those in the team that won the U-17 World Cup, but everything is wrong if the team is composed of those that are not “our sons”.

"LIFE" This life is a lesson for those who understand it. To climb the ladder of this life and to get to the top is not an easy tax,when you get there,to retained that top position is not as easy as you climb to that top. It can take 2 to 3yrs for somebody to overcome his predicament, downfall of a man is not the end of his life. Life is up and down.no permanent place for human beings on this earth,that's why we see young boy of yesterday speed over the older ones. there was a time money was coming into my hand,they gave me the respect and the honour that I deserved,once u lack,they will rant,shout at you talk back at you look u down nearly ask u to come and clean their sheet even ask you to go to hell, to the extend of asking you to life their home. They will remind you what they did for you at the past,if at all you never ask them to flashback. If at all from nothing you still find means to make them happy. In did life is a teacher.

I'm Gay I proud of it. Apple boss

Throughout my professional life, I’ve tried to maintain a basic level of privacy. I come from humble roots, and I don’t seek to draw attention to myself. Apple is already one of the most closely watched companies in the world, and I like keeping the focus on our products and the incredible things our customers achieve with them. At the same time, I believe deeply in the words of Dr. Martin Luther King, who said: “Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, ‘What are you doing for others?’ ” I often challenge myself with that question, and I’ve come to realize that my desire for personal privacy has been holding me back from doing something more important. That’s what has led me to today. For years, I’ve been open with many people about my sexual orientation. Plenty of colleagues at Apple know I’m gay, and it doesn’t seem to make a difference in the way they treat me. Of course, I...
